The imperial examination of all dynasties is one of the top priorities of the country, and the imperial examination of Dade for three years is even more so, because the imperial examination has not been held for five years, resulting in a terrifying number of 5,000 candidates for the imperial examination this year, and even some of them do not know whether to give up the imperial examination because of the number of people.

Let's participate, 180 out of 5,000 people will be selected, which is really a very low probability.

Don't participate, the last imperial examination was in the twenty-seventh year of Taiqian, that is, five years ago, Emperor Taiqian died four years ago, three years ago Emperor Dade succeeded to the throne but met the pseudo-Wu Liguo in Jiangnan, and finally opened the imperial examination this year, everyone doesn't want to delay anything next time, and finally cut off everyone's official road.

As a result, 5,000 Xiucai lived in one hundred and eight squares in Longdu City, and an average of 100 Xiucai lived in each square city. This is really an unprecedented event, and in order to make the Xiucai live comfortably, Yin Suyu, the governor of Longdu Prefecture, ordered that all inns, restaurants, restaurants, snack vendors, and green buildings in Longdu City should not increase their prices during the imperial examination......

Although this last request is a bit weird, Su Yu's price suppression order still made almost all the talents praise, saying that although this Lord Su is not from the imperial examination, Master Su is indeed a good official. However, Su Yu offended many businessmen in Longdu, and everyone was ready to take advantage of the imperial examination candidates to come to Longdu to make a fortune, but he didn't expect that he would not allow everyone to raise prices, and also sealed up seven disrespectful people and confiscated their inns.

The Su family was even more annoyed, and Su Yu's eldest brother Su Jing thought that the reason why Su Yu asked the Qinglou not to increase the price was because the Su family had eight Qinglou, and Su Yu ordered it to disgust the Su family after the separation.

On the fifth day of October, a notice was issued in front of the Tai Academy, announcing that the number of people to be admitted this year would be increased to 450, and the three lists of heaven, earth and people would be cancelled. During the three-year study period of the college students, the imperial court will provide food and housing conditions, and give each college student a scholarship of three taels of silver per month.

As soon as this news came out, it immediately shocked the whole world, and the students rushed to tell each other, everyone was shocked by the four hundred and fifty places, and the other was shocked by the Royal Academy of St. Han. What is this Royal Academy, the Longdu Shi clan who have heard the rumors before have also released rumors, saying that all officials must study in the Royal Academy in the future, and only college students who graduate here are qualified to be officials, and the road to donating officials in the future will be cut off.

As soon as this remark came out, it immediately attracted applause and cheers from scholars and talents all over the world, saying that the imperial court has finally opened its eyes, and those who donate officials finally don't have to harm the imperial court anymore. Everyone hates donating officials, after all, after ten years of hard work, the future was blocked by a rich man's money, who can bear it? It would be fine if another scholar was better than him, but it was the sons of merchants who were despised by them who were full of copper stench, which was unbearable for the scholars.

Scholars are becoming more and more supportive of the imperial court, and they are becoming more and more optimistic about the imperial court, and Zhang Xiaowu's reform is also on the road to success.

In the teahouse of Wangxingyuan in Guirenfang, dozens of talents gathered together in twos and threes, everyone drank tea and chatted, ate pastries and talked about the past and the present, and even a few women also sat at the table in the corner eating melon seeds and drinking tea, talking and laughing from time to time, which attracted the attention of many students. It's not that these women are not serious people, the saint Han people are martial and open, and some unmarried girls also go out shopping and get together with friends with the permission of their families. Not to mention unmarried girls, it is normal for the little daughters-in-law who have just passed the door to go shopping.

This year coincides with the Great Year of the Imperial Examination, 5,000 talents from all over the world came to Jingshi, and the topics of the Jingshi in the past few months are all about the imperial examination and young talents from all over the world.

Of course, if there are any unmarried women who fall in love with others, it is the other party's name that falls to Sun Shan, and they are willing to make a promise to perform a good show in the world.

The topic that the scholars chatted about was naturally this year's imperial examination, and there were too many things to talk about about this imperial examination. Candidates from all over the world exchanged information here, inquiring about the news they needed, especially about the Royal Academy.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I have heard from a friend of my third uncle's fifth aunt's cousin's nephew that this royal academy will be divided into five subjects, namely, classics, history, arts, sciences, and arts, with ninety students in each subject, and each subject will have three classes, each class will have a class teacher, and these class teachers will be all students of Zhishi. It's really interesting to be a student to manage a bachelor's degree, it's really interesting. ”

"What do these five subjects mean?"

"I don't know much about this, but I've only heard of one, which is this science, which requires the knowledge of calculation. To give an example, if the officials do not know how many people are in a county, how many rations a person needs every day, and the total amount of food that the people need to eat between this autumn and next year's autumn harvest, if the officials do not know about this amount, it is very likely that the people will starve all over the country. Therefore, this method of calculation is really necessary for those who are officials, especially for some officials who only want to be officials and do not think about the people, these moths must be removed from the officialdom. When the central commander of the court said, if the official does not make decisions for the people, it is better to go home and sell sweet potatoes! ”

"Good!"

Suddenly, there was a cheer in the stargazing garden, and now everyone knows that it is not easy to make it regardless of whether the left or right phase is the central order, and the biggest official position in the court is the central order, which is directly under the control of the emperor, so the central order is the top official above ten thousand people under one person, and the central order is the first of the hundred officials.

"Ladies and gentlemen! Ladies and gentlemen! Ladies and gentlemen! A square-faced scholar hurriedly reminded, "Although the central order has a good starting point, it's a pity that this huge officialdom of the Holy Han Empire, can he change it?" Don't talk about other places, it's this dragon capital, he can make the dragon capital Jingming, I admire it! ”

"You don't care if you can change it, in short, it must be a good thing for someone to face up to the dust in the officialdom."

"Yes, yes, definitely a good thing."

Zhang Xiaowu smiled in the corner and did not speak, listening to others praise him, his heart was naturally happy. He stroked his fake beard, ate a bite of crisp cake, and suddenly a sweetness warmed his heart, maybe this is a happy event when people are in good spirits, even if they eat, they feel much sweeter.

"Brother Simon." Sitting down opposite a handsome young man who didn't like to talk, suddenly attracted the attention of the women at the two tables, only to see that this young man's muscles were like condensation, his lips were red and his teeth were white, especially a pair of eyes were like a pool of deep water, and he was stunned to fall into it after a glance and couldn't extricate himself.

"What a beautiful boy." Someone couldn't help but say.
